Philodendron gloriosum
Philodendron gloriosum is a Colombian crawling Philodendron grown for large heart-shaped leaves with a velvety surface and pale venation. Its surface-running stem moves sideways across the substrate and produces one new leaf at a time from the active growing tip. A wide, shallow pot gives the stem room to advance while the root zone stays airy and evenly drained.
The creeping stem has visible internodes and persistent cataphylls, and it belongs at the substrate surface. Roots grow down into the mix while the active tip continues forward across the pot.
Philodendron gloriosum velvet leaves and crawling growth
- Leaf shape: Broad, heart-shaped blades become larger as the creeping stem establishes.
- Texture: The velvety surface gives mature leaves a deep green, matte finish.
- Venation: Pale veins define the blade shape and become more pronounced as leaves harden.
- Growth habit: A surface-creeping stem needs horizontal pot space and an airy substrate surface.
- Family: Araceae.
How Philodendron gloriosum creeps across the pot
Philodendron gloriosum develops one leaf at a time from a crawling stem. The stem should stay visible on top of the substrate, with roots growing down into an airy aroid mix. Deep planting keeps moisture around the stem and increases the risk of rot.
As the stem advances, the plant builds a low, spreading shape with new leaves emerging from the active tip. A pot with open substrate ahead of the growing point supports cleaner growth, especially once the stem begins reaching the pot edge.
Care for Philodendron gloriosum crawling stems
- Pot shape: Choose a wider pot so the creeping stem has room to move forward.
- Stem position: Keep the surface-running stem visible and clear of wet, compacted mix.
- Watering: Water when the upper 25–35% of the pot has dried, then let the surface settle before watering again.
- Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix that holds light moisture while draining quickly around the roots.
- Light: Provide bright indirect light to support broad leaves and steady growth.
- Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps new leaves open with fewer tears or stuck edges.
- Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally around 18–27°C, and protect it from cold draughts.
- Fertilizing: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser diluted below full strength.
- Repotting: Repot when the growing stem reaches the pot edge or root growth has filled the container.
- Propagation: Stem sections with at least one node can root in a warm, humid setup.
- Pruning: Remove damaged leaves at the base of the petiole and keep old, wet cataphyll material from collecting around the stem.
- Mineral substrates: It can adapt to airy semi-hydro or mineral substrates if the creeping stem stays above the wet zone.
Philodendron gloriosum stem and leaf issues
- Soft creeping stem: Check planting depth and moisture; the stem should sit on top of the mix.
- Yellow leaves: Often linked to heavy substrate or overwatering around the roots.
- Torn new leaves: Improve humidity and keep watering steadier while leaves are expanding.
- Stalled growth: Check whether the growing tip has run out of horizontal space.
- Pests: Check the undersides of leaves and the petiole bases for thrips, spider mites and mealybugs.
- Leaf spotting: Improve airflow around the plant and keep the velvety leaf surface dry after watering.
Pet safety for Philodendron gloriosum
Philodendron gloriosum is toxic if eaten and can irritate the mouth and digestive tract. Place it away from pets and wash your hands after handling cut or damaged tissue.
Philodendron gloriosum published name and etymology
The genus name Philodendron comes from Greek roots meaning tree-loving, a reference to climbing and tree-associated growth in much of the genus. Philodendron gloriosum was described by Édouard André and published in Illustration Horticole in 1876. The species epithet gloriosum means glorious or splendid, matching the broad velvety leaves and pale venation seen on mature plants.
Philodendron gloriosum brings a low, spreading growth habit together with large velvet leaves and bold pale veins.

work well + good value for the pack
Finally got a chance to try these recently. They're exactly like the ones I already had, that I paid a little more for. I think these are a good value and work pretty well - not as well as the better beauty store razors, but better than like dollar tree or something. I like the size of the handle. I consider them disposable, especially if you're using with a hair identifying powder spray or oil.

A Year of Easy Smoothness
I love that this set comes with 12 razors, giving me a full year of monthly replacements. The handle feels solid and comfortable to hold, and the different sizes are handy for both facial and eyebrow use. They glide smoothly and exfoliate gently without irritating my skin. My only minor complaint is that the blades aren’t as sharp as I expected, so I have to go over an area a few times to remove all the peach fuzz. Still, for the price and convenience, it’s great value for the money and makes skincare feel fresh and polished.

Love that they come in a plastic container
I prefer this brand of razors because they don’t have the line sections on the blade. They are very sharp! Be careful. I love how sharp it is because I don’t need to do double passing on my face, and I can be as light as a feather with it and know it’ll still work. It did not cause any skin irritation, and was great at removing the dead skin cells off the top layer of my face.

Terrific!
While less well known than his later biographies of George Washington and Alexander Hamilton, this book stands equal to them. Rather than a biography of a single man this is the biography of a most extraordinary family and their impact on banking and the history of the twentieth century. This is a terrific book and one that I recommend without reservation. Chernow tells a very complex story in the tradition of a great novelist, without sacrificing any of the historical details that define the picture of a family whose story mirrors the triumphs and tragedies of the 20th century.
The book traces the history of the Warburg family from the 16th century to the 1990's, with the emphasis on the 20th century. The story is told through the biographies of many of its members, focusing on the brothers Aby, Max, Paul, Felix and Fritz, their sons and nephews. Individual chapters cover individuals, interwoven and progressing through the 20th century. There is the scholarly eldest brother, Aby, who exchanged his birthright for the promise of being provided all the books he desired (and created one of the world's greatest private libraries), the next eldest brother Max who autocratically ran the familie's Hamburg bank, the next brother Paul who made his mark in the US (providing the banking expertise behind his idea for the US Federal Reserve System), Felix who also made his mark in the US (both as a banker, but even more so as a philanthropist) and on to the youngest Fritz who served in both the Prussian and American Armies, and eventually fought to revive the Warburg position as preeminent Hamburg bankers. The book follows these brothers and their nephew Sigmund who made his mark in the US, in Great Britain (becoming Sir Sigmund) and in Europe after WWII. The book also discusses the sons of these brothers, their wives and other relatives. Fortunately, there are several pages of genealogy charts which help in keeping all the relationships between family member straight and many photographs that help flesh out the many stories that are discussed.
Were the book just about the history of the family members it would have been very good, but it is about much more. The book is about the turmoil of 20th century Germany, about how this family suffered and recovered. It is about family members who were loyal to their adopted homes in the US and Great Britain, but still, before the 1930's, had strong emotional ties to Germany. It tries to explain how some in the family still had warm feeling for Germany, in spite of what happened to them in the 1930's. It is about how Fritz left his comfortable life in the US to return to Germany to reestablish their stolen Hamburg bank, but also to serve as a bridge between Germany and the rest of the post-WWII world. It is about strong men with sons who often failed to live up to their high expectations. It is about loyalty, deceit, struggle, success and failure. It is a cautionary tail about the evolution of 20th century politics and war, as well as about banking. In short this is a terrific book.

I wish it had been done better
I imagine I'm going to get unhelpful votes by saying this, but this biography was not up to par with the author's other biographies. I've read Titan, which I thought was great, House of Morgan, which was really good, and Hamilton, which was also good, and this book just isn't up to those other books.
The beginning was very frustrating because we learn about this supposedly very successful and widely acclaimed and established German banking family, yet there is practically nothing concerning how they got to be well known and exceedingly wealthy, nor what their business dealings were at the time. And this lack of information goes on and on, focusing almost to exclusion on inter-personal issues.
Looking up the Warburgs in Wikipedia, I learned that the family had been a very successful banking family from the 1600's back in Venice, even before they settled in Warburg, Germany. Starting the narrative in the mid to late 1800's with the success of Jews in what was to become Germany just left me hanging and feeling like I was missing a large part of who the Warburgs were and how they got that way.
Additionally, the family had been around for a very long time and there are scattered references to visiting or staying with uncles and aunts, but the overall breadth of the family is not addressed.
Thinking about his problem now, it almost would make more sense and read better if there was a short intro and perhaps 10 separate bios on separate family members, instead of skipping around. It would help the flow. I have a feeling the author's inability to read German or Swedish or other European languages and his lack of primary research in Europe, where the Warburgs achieved fame and fortune, contributed to this incomplete biography.
On the other hand, it appears that not much had been written on the Warburgs prior to this book (at least in English), and that is why I read the book. Additionally, the whole build up to the Holocaust and how the Warburgs kept their warm feelings for Germany throughout the experience, as a constant theme, was very interesting and well done, especially since I'm Jewish. The reading got more focused and poignant the closer the Holocaust got and immediately afterwards.
3 or 3.5 stars is probably the best score, but will upgrade so I don't get canned too badly. If you're interested in the Warburg it's a good starter book, though I imagine if this weren't one of the first books Chernow wrote, he would have done a better job as a more mature and accomplished biographer.
